jocelynceeand it does, and it's good...
I'd been in a bit of a funk for the last couple of days, mainly because I was having trouble accepting the fact that, yes, indeed, I really do need to be single just now. When I say "having trouble", the best translation is "fighting tooth and claw". My ego wants to be impatient, but my heart knows better.
I don't know whether or not I have given up fighting completely, but the fact remains that I feel a great deal better today, and I'm getting excited about going back to school in the fall. I get to see first hand whether or not I really want to spend my life in a classroom or not. ;)
I have also been thinking ahead a bit, to the PhD program I will more than likely want to start as soon as the Master's degree is in my hand. I just started looking... so far the program that looks best on paper is Medieval Studies at Cornell. It is both an established program (begun 1968) and an interdisciplinary one - in fact, they require students to have at least one minor outside of their major field. Sounds like heaven to me. *grin*
I'm still looking at other programs elsewhere, but I know I will at least be visiting Cornell sometime in the next year (once I'm back in the States, that is).
Oh, and as blogged this morning... I finished my Old French translation assignment in record time. I'm getting excited about this!
